Items related to Going Global: Transforming Relief and Development NGOs
Synopsis
* An innovative look at changing roles of NGOs in global politics
* Based on extensive fieldwork and discussions with NGO presidents and CEOs
This is an invaluable resource to anyone studying general nonprofit management issues, as well as those studying the specific challenges of relief and development organizations. Boasting a unique insiders’ perspective, it is the first book-length study of the largest Northern-based international relief and development NGOs.
The authors address the challenges of accountability, evaluation, and organizational learning for NGOs and the growing significance of complex emergencies, peacebuilding, and advocacy work. They evaluate how infrastructures are being organized on a worldwide basis and responding to the transformative changes globalization demands.

About the Author
Coralie Bryant Professor and Director of the Economic and Political Development Program at the School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University, is also assisting L'Institut des etudes politques, (Sciences-Po) in Paris with the development of their Atelier in Development. Both Coralie and Christina worked with Marc Lindenberg on a previous Kumarian book, Going Global: Transforming International Relief and Development NGOs. Prior to Columbia University, she was a senior staff member of the World Bank, where, among other work, in 1990-1991 she was one of the central authors and negotiators for the World Bank's first policy paper on governance.
Review
"Lindenberg and Bryant convincingly argue that the leading NGOs in international relief and development are at the cusp of pivotal opportunities. World changes and the forces of globalization are re-shaping the landscape NGOs inhabit: if they seize these challenges creatively they stand to become yet more influential and more valuable to the world’s poor; if they miss the chance they risk becoming outdated. Going Global provides a timely route-map to this frontier. It is an essential tool for leaders and staff of NGOs in these times of rapid change, and a great resource for all who are interested in NGOs, be they academics, donors or supporters."
"Explores in an informed and innovative manner the changing, emerging roles of major international NGOs in global politics."
